The album is great, ALL the songs from front to back are incredible. While it is not a REGULATE, it does invoke the smae feelings and haev much of the same concept: dope hooks and beats, and tight guest appearances. While Warren G 's lyrics have gotten slightly better, his flow is not as nice as it was early in his career. However, that does not tkae away from the album as his beats steal the show and guest appearances are incredible.
buy this album, you won't be disappointed if you are looking for beats, hooks, and REAL g-funk. Otherwise, if you are looking for striaght lyrics, go elswhere. PEACE

If it wasn't for Stillmatic, this would be my album of the year. Dope beats, dope hooks, just straight g-funk... too many people bought this album expecting a lyrical masterpiece, which has never been Warren G's style. This is the best westcoast album of last year and probably since 2001. I can't say anything about this album. I can play it from beginning to the end with no skips. Hip Hop great!

Warren's new shit is a "come back" classic. I wish sales would reflect this but it's still a classic, never the less.
I've been tryin to spread the word, BP.

Imma have to buy a few more copies just to support the homie. 17,000 x's 2 brings Warren up to 34,000 sold. Everyone should run out and buy another copy. It's only 14 bucks at most.

Man, I downloaded the album two months ago. Albums ain't worth buying if know of some mp3 sites & KaZaA. You'll
get covers at www.cdcovers.cc. So all you need is an Internet connection, site knowledge, KaZaA, a CD writer and a preferably high quality printer.

I had this Warren G album before it was released too, but shit... I always give it up for an aritst, but seriously this is a come back... I mean shit... look at hip hop today, people crown Jay-Z the King, Nelly the Queen and Lil Bow Wow the Prince. Then you see folks like Warren G... who put out music for the love of creativity and artistic expression. However, they dont get any credit. People like Jermaine Dupri do, people who using their image to sell. I remember looking at Jermaine Dupri's album and seeing track titles like "Welcome to Atlanta" and "ballin out of control" and "money, hoes, and power" and thinking.... shit.... these folks never knew about money hoes and power until they were given a chance in the rap game, now they make money off it... you see Warren G, with a classic, and I mean classic westcoast album and you see it not even past Fabulous's album "ghetto fabulous" ... I think... damn, where is the rap game... it's in the people who represent it... you see more Nelly on TV than you see Mos Def, you see more Lil Romeo than you see Common, you see more of all the riches than you see of the artistic... it's sick... I would pick Return of the Regulator over any of the top selling albums this year and that goes for Stillmatic... nas brought a conscious on stillmatic, but his music wasn't my style... jay-z brought back the 70's, but Warren g brought back the g-funk... not even nate dogg did that... props to warren, but it seems like people are more worried about the next beef between Nas and JayZ...

He may be putting out music for the love of creativity & artistic expression, he is very creative producer, but at the same time a very marginal lyricist. And both are releasing albums both for money & love for the music. So you can't really say he's no better than JD. But I agree it's a shame he hasn't got more attention...

A-fucking-men to that! Warren G is one real mofo, he doesn't try to be anything other than what he is, he knows exactly where he's from & he never forgets it. This album is pure dopeness, if u like straight g-funk then you'll love this album. He might not of been here from the very start but he's defo a pioneer of g-funk & he deserves so much more than he gets. Long live G-funk & hail Warren G!!

No offence, but.. if u burn his cds like u said (with all the particulars! lol!).. how can he have "attention"? U just robbed him. And that's a fact. I understand if u burn a compilation, or a soundtrack.. or an album of a guy u dont like just cause there's a track of your fav rapper in it. Like if u burn a Babyface album just cause there's a track of Snoop in it. It's ok. But to burn a whole CD of Warren G? Mmmmm.. Or to suggest other guys to burn it without even considering to buy it... that's stupid! Sorry if i'm so explicit.
PLUS!
Like Pac said, a rapper doesnt rap for you, or your pleasure. I dont even think he make music for HIS pleasure. Not always. He raps to live, to make money. If u burn his cds, it's like if you are robbing him. U know what i mean? U like the rapper? Spend 14$ and buy his cd.
You cant write: "it's a shame that.." when u are the first to robb him.
-
It's funny cuz a lot of rappers were robbers back in the days...
robb an ex-robber ;D

Yeah, yeah, but you can't fade my new year's resolution. In 2001 I was buying like 3 cd's a week, I decided to save money and also get them easier & faster by downloading and burning albums. I have paid my dues, and speaking of dues, you are due to give me Warren's first album.

Ok, i feel you. Family first. Music 2nd. But dont tell other guys who are asking "is it worth to buy?" to burn it! ;)
Btw lol @ Myrealname's post! You right. It's funny. But i'm not so negative about em. I prefeer em to robb us 14$ instead of selling drugs! ;)
-
u aint really a fan if u have copyied cd's.....U r just ripping them off!
-
ROTR is better than Mater p's game face,and i don't know why Puppet P is at position 53! ::)
-
not feelin ROTR, I would not buy it, he's robbing u, just what i think,
-
I finally bought this album and I am completely satisfied. This shit is HOT! I only buy West Coast albums with my money. The only East Coast albums I've bought since 1999 was The Blueprint and Stillmatic. I burn the rest.

True in a way. But look at it like this: The new Jigga-cd is on the streets and you desp. want it but you only like 3 of the songs on there. Will you take 15 of your hardly earned dollaz to the shop to add some couple of dollarz to Jiggas 100.000.000 DOLLAZ, or do you download the 3 tracks that you liked, and check up on Jigga at a later time?
(BTW just an example, I got Blueprint, and I liked at least 10)
